How to cook deliciously - Bacon Beef Tenderloin with Cranberry Glaze

1. Stage

Pour wine into a large bowl or baking dish; place tenderloin in dish. Refrigerate 8 hours or overnight; turn occasionally.

2. Stage

Preheat oven to 425°. Remove beef, discarding marinade. In a small bowl, combine salt, sugar and coffee granules; rub over beef. Cut lengthwise through the center of roast to within 1/2 in. of bottom.

3. Stage

In a small bowl, beat cream cheese, bacon and, if desired, jalapenos. Fill center of roast with cream cheese mixture. Close roast; tie at 2-in. intervals with kitchen string.

4. Stage

Place on a rack in a roasting pan. Roast 45-55 minutes or until meat reaches desired doneness (for medium-rare, a thermometer should read 135°; medium, 140°; medium-well, 145°). Meanwhile, finely grate zest from oranges. Cut oranges crosswise in half; squeeze juice from oranges. In a small saucepan, combine wine, cranberry sauce, orange zest and juice. Bring to a boil; cook 15-20 minutes or until liquid is reduced by half.

Remove roast from oven; tent with foil. Let stand 15 minutes before slicing. Remove string; serve with glaze.
